			<title>Europol and Mexico to cooperate against anarchist groups</title>
			<link>http://www.antifa.ca/antifa-news/europol-and-mexico-to-cooperate-against-anarchist-groups</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Note from WOS: It goes without saying that we do not share the analysis of the Europol or of the press that are reported below. What we do consider important is to be aware of international police cooperation. It is also worth mentioning that what follows is a decent summary of recent anarchist action especially in Mexico, and we have added links where they may be helpful.

from the press, translated by waronsociety:
Alarm in Europe due to Mexican Anarchists
The European police seem to be more interested in fighting anarchism (which they automatically equate with terrorism) than narco-trafficking. They demonstrate this in a cooperation accord which will soon be negotiated between the European police and the Mexican government, and the report on “terrorist trends in the EU” which is about to be published. A recount of the attacks in Italy and Mexico would explain Europol’s alarm.
BRUSSELS (Proceso) — The police force of the European Union (EU), Europol, intends for the cooperation accord it will negotiate with Enrique Peña Nieto’s government to include the exchange of information about anarchist groups operating in Mexico.
Last October 4th, the EU Cabinet approved Europol’s beginning of accord negotiations with the Mexican government. Its primary–but not sole–component would be the fight against narco-trafficking.
The eventual collaboration of the Mexican and European police against the anarchists (a tendency toward what they automatically qualify as terrorist) would fall within the framework of European politics of fighting terrorism, according to a Europol document dated April 4, 2012 of which Proceso has a copy. 
The document specifies, “At this time there has been no cooperation between Mexico and the EU in matters of the fight against terrorism. Nevertheless, Mexico is relevant for Europol because there have been reports of the presence of members of terrorist groups based in Europe (for example ETA). Mexico is also very relevant for Europol due to the numerous extremist anarchist attacks that have been committed there (…) Frequently (the authors) claim that they were perpetrated in solidarity with anarchists incarcerated in the EU.”
According to the document, the information that the Mexican police would give about this would be incorporated into an operational database with which Europol works and which corresponds to “domestic terrorism.” Its official name is Analysis Work Files Dolphin.
On April 25, 2012, Europol published their EU Terrorism and Situation and Trend Report*, which is the most recent [actually the 2013 report is out now -TN] and corresponds to events that happened in 2011.
Europe traditionally dedicates a part of this report to “leftist and anarchist terrorism.”
The document says that in 2011 there were 37 terrorist attacks–attributed to anarchist and revolutionary groups–in Denmark, Germany, Greece, Italy and Spain. In 2010 there were 45 attacks of this kind. The majority being acts of arson.
The Europol report counts 23 bombing attacks in 2010 and 11 the following year. These attacks caused 6 deaths in 2010 and 1 in 2011 in Greece when an activist was fabricating an explosive device in a building’s basement. In Italy, two persons were wounded in two different attacks in 2011.
The FAI
In their report, Europol puts emphasis the activity of the Informal Anarchist Federation (FAI) of Italy. They explain that this group claimed attacks in 2011 in their country and in Greece, Germany and Switzerland, and confirms that its modus operandi “for years” has been the coordinated sending of explosive devices by mail. Recently the FAI also started to operate in the UK.
The FAI was created in 2003. That year and the following, they sent a series of explosive letters to representatives of the European Parliament in Brussels and to officials of other European institutions, such as the then-president of the European Commission, Romano Prodi, or that of the Central European Bank, Jean-Claude Trichet, as well as the headquarters of Eurojust (an organization for legal cooperation) and of Europol itself in The Hague, Holand.
The FAI is one of the anarchist groups with the greatest strength and determination in Europe, as their recent activities demonstrate.
On December 9, 2011, a bomb–inside of a yellow padded envelope–exploded in the tax office of Equitalia in Rome. The explosion destroyed a desk’s glass and caused injuries to a hand and the eyes of the agency’s director, Marco Cuccagna.
Two days earlier the FAI had sent a letter-bomb to the executive director of Deutsche Bank, Josef Ackermann. The letter, which contained a combination of explosive and shrapnel, was discovered by the bank’s security services. The return address corresponded to the Central European Bank, located a few blocks from the Deutsche Bank headquarters in Frankfurt, Germany.
On this occasion the police found a message from the FAI that warned of three bomb attacks “against banks and bankers, fleas and bloodsuckers.”
On May 7, 2012, a man traveling by motorcycle shot at Roberto Adinolfi, an executive of the Ansaldo Nuclear group, the Aerospace Consortium, and the Finmeccanica defense group. The victim was wounded in one leg.
Days later, on May 16, the FAI–through a letter published by regional papers of Southern Italy–threatened the Prime Minister Mario Monti, and declared that they were preparing more actions to avenge the incarceration of eight anarchists in Greece.
In this three page letter, the group claimed the attack against Adinolfi and referred to the Equitalia tax agency, which had become a symbol of the crisis that swept the country. The strong pressure the tax authority exercises against its citizens has provoked numerous suicides.
The FAI warned in this message that they would attack the Italian State, “likewise through Equitalia, until it changes its politics and starts to protect the people,” as a response to the statements from the Ministry of the Interior, Annamaria Cancellieri, to the tune that the attack against the tax agency was considered an aggression against the State.
The underground organization added that every suicide provoked by the economic crisis would be considered an “assassination committed by the State.”
At this time the Italian police decided to reinforce the security of various magistrates of Bologna, Italy, who had been threatened by Greek anarchists for being implicated in the investigation of a package bomb sent from Athens to then-Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, on November 1, 2010. The sending of this explosive material was attributed to members of the Greek group Conspiracy of Cells of Fire (CCF), tied to the FAI.
Also receiving police protection were eight businesspeople, including the CEO and Chairman of Finmeccanica, Giuseppe Orsi, who was arrested last February 12th for having committed alleged acts of corruption in the sale of 12 helicopters to the Air Force of India when he was the general director of Augusta Westland.
The Mexican network

Many anarchist groups in other countries have claimed–with the name of the Italian organization–their own actions: Mexico has a “faction” (the Informal FAI of Mexico) with presence in various states.
The Informal FAI of Mexico and other anarchist groups have a close relation with their Greek peers. The activity of these groups has grown over some four years, according to the expert Jorge Lofredo of the Center for the Documentation of Armed Movements.
The Italian anarchists think that the State’s most recent offensive against them began in 2001 with the creation of special police groups for their surveillance. Those in Mexico claim that the repression against them hardened in Mexico City during Marcelo Ebrad’s term (2006-2012).
Anarchist attacks in Mexico are numerous, but very few are divulged by the media. This was the case of the explosive package deposited in a postal box that exploded on February 21st in the hands of a worker of the Postal Service who took it illegally.
In a communique dated February 22nd, this attack was claimed by the anarchist group Individualists Tending toward the Wild, one of the most active in Mexico and whose attacks against the “techno-industrial system” are directed at academics and scientists from centers like the UNAM or Monterrey Tec. This group claimed the murder–committed in Cuernavaca on November 8, 2011–of Ernesto Méndez Salinas, a biotechnology expert of the UNAM.
The Informal FAI of Mexico and other anarchist groups have carried out recent actions: On Friday the 5th, the Emile Henry Insurrectionalist Revolutionary Group Tending toward Anarchy – Informal Anarchist Federation (FAI) / International Revolutionary Front (IRF) claimed the January 18th arson of a passenger bus of the Tucdosa line in Oaxaca, the “sabotage” of four Telmex telephone booths and the sending of “a homemade incendiary bomb” on March 29th to a PAN office.
This last action, the anarchists said, was done in solidarity with the community radios and communities that oppose the wind power megaprojects in Istmo de Tehuantepec. The explosive was deactivated by the police.
Last March 6th a group of anarchist youth announced that a “solidarity activity” (a rally) would be celebrated in front of the embassy of Italy in Mexico. They protested the arrest of several of their companions in Europe, in particular eight of them in Italy, one in Switzerland and another in Germany, as a result of the police Operation Ardire on June 13, 2012. Some of those captured were bloggers from the internet site Culmine.
They also expressed in this peaceful action their solidarity with two more anarchists arrested in Italy on August 27, 2012 and manifested their support of the Greek anarchists of the CCF group imprisoned in their country.
Earlier, the Mexico City faction of the Informal FAI of Mexico and another of the CCF claimed the arson of two pharmeceutical product stores in San Juan Xalpa, Iztapalapa, last September 18th.
The Mexican anarchists mentioned in a communique that the purpose of this action was to express their solidarity with their compañero Mario López, with Gabriel Pombo da Silva and Marco Camenisch, imprisoned in Germany and Switzerland respectively; with the prisoners of the CCF in Greece and with those arrested on June 13, 2012 in Italy.
López was captured on June 29, 2012 after setting off an explosive in Coyoacán, imprisoned in the Southern Detention Center and released on bail last December 29th.
On August 21, 2012, the Informal FAI of Mexico and the CCF claimed authorship of another intentional fire, this time at the Plásticos Viga business, in Apodaca, Nuevo León, another in the Museum of the Mexican Revolution in downtown Puebla.
These actions, they said, were to express solidarity with the “eco-anarchist” Braulio Durán, imprisoned in León, Guanajuanto for allegedly having set fire to an HSBC ATM on September 17, 2009, as well as with Mario López and again with the anarchists imprisoned in Italy after Operation Ardire.
But the attack most obviously close to the Italian anarchist movement was that of the early hours of December 12, 2011 against the Italian Institute of Culture in Coyoacán. It was claimed by the Revolutionary Anarchist Cell – Gabriella Segata Antolini and the Autonomous Cells for Immediate Revolution – Práxedis G. Guerrero (CARI-PGG) / Faction of the Informal FAI of Mexico.
These same organizations set off an explosive device on September 18, 2012 in a BBVA-Bancomer branch in the Obrera neighborhood of Mexico City. In April and May of 2012 the CARI-PGG sent two explosive packages to the Greek embassy in Mexico, the first in the name of the capital’s then-prosecutor Miguel Mancera.
In the communique claiming the attack on the Italian Institute of Culture in Mexico, the anarchists expressed again their suport for their imprisoned compañeros in Italy and in particular Federico Buono, an anarchist arrested on June 15, 2011 in Milan in possession of two homemade bombs.
The Mexican anarchists said that this attack against the cultural institute–a branch of the Italian government–was also to affirm their “presence” in the FAI and the IRF.

			<title>Political Declaration of the Dublin meeting on solidarity with the Colombian peace process</title>
			<link>http://www.antifa.ca/antifa-news/political-declaration-of-the-dublin-meeting-on-solidarity-with-the-colombian-peace-process</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Political Declaration of the “ European conference in solidarity with the agrarian and popular struggles , and in support of the talks for Peace with Social Justice in Colombia.” Dublin, April 20-21, 2013


After three days of discussions, in an atmosphere of comradeship, unity and frankness, the participants in the “European conference in solidarity with the agrarian and popular struggles and in support of the talks for Peace with Social Justice in Colombia, we, Colombians in exile and internationalists coming from Ireland, Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden and Spain, have arrived at the following conclusions.

-A fundamental task facing us in Europe is to give support to the talks currently taking place in Havana between the national government and the insurgency of the FARC. As a part of this support we see three central elements; - the development of the peace process to involve the other insurgents, (ELN. EPL), and the proposals emanating from the social movements; - A bilateral ceasefire, so as to create the right atmosphere for productive discussions. We urge the European Union to lift its description of the FARC as “terrorists”, an act which obstructs political dialogue, reinforces militarist tendencies and undermines the efforts to open up a space for political and democratic development; furthermore, it is in contradiction with the fact that a direct dialogue is taking place.

-We are appalled at the persistence, indeed the intensification, of the repression directed against the human rights defenders, political activists of the opposition and movements which proclaim the right to a decent life. This repression bears down particularly strongly on the peasant movements, especially those demanding the return of their land, and the reserved zones for the peasantry. We feel that you cannot talk of a sustainable, durable peace if you do not protect the right to life of the very people who are the moving forces in the construction of a democratic, peaceful and inclusive Colombia.

-We must recognise the grave humanitarian crisis which exists in the Colombian prisons, where thousands of political prisoners and prisoners of war are held in conditions which do not meet the minimum standards for a human being. We call for support for all initiatives to bring this situation to light, and to make this issue a priority for the European authorities and for all those acting in solidarity with the Colombian process.

-We should get involved with the European social organisations, peace and solidarity movements and internationalists in support of social struggles in support of this task of building a Colombia in peace with social justice. Those social sectors in Colombia who have mobilised in order to overcome the structural causes of the conflict need support. European governments and citizens can give a decisive backing to the talks among all the parties so that they can reach an agreement. We call on Colombian exiles and immigrants in Europe to commit themselves to the search for solutions to the problems which gave rise to the social conflict and armed struggle, and to actively mobilise to back this political process towards a negotiated settlement.

We acknowledge the goodwill expressed to this meeting. We appreciate the support that this meeting has received from the diplomatic missions in Ireland of Venezuela, Chile, Norway, and most especially Colombia. We are grateful for the backing of the Irish Government, as conveyed to us by Joe Costello, Minister of State at the Department of Foreign Affairs, who once more expressed the government&#039;s interest in sharing the lessons of the Irish peace process with the parties.

Our thanks go to to Irish politicians such as Maureen O&#039;Sullivan, and to solidarity organisations such as Justice for Colombia, the Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign, the Venezuela-Ireland Network and the Latin America Solidarity Centre, among others, for their messages of support, also the Communist Party of Ireland and Sinn Féin. Other organisations in Europe also expressed their support including ZAS, AIPAZComún, the Party of Labour, Solidarité Latine, Che-Marx and CETIM (Switzerland) The German Communist Party, the International Forum of Denmark, The Radio Café Stereo (Sweden) and INTAL (Belgium)

We especially appreciate the messages we have received from Colombia; - from Fensuagro, Astrocol, Astracava, Pupsoc, Conap, CCVC, Sinaltrainal Pradera, Comité de Coteras de Caña del Cauca y del Valle del Cauca, Brigada Jurídica Eduardo Umaña, Political Prisoners of la Marina en Picaleña (Ibagué, Tolima), the Antonio Nariño collective of political prisoners and prisoners of war, (Combita, Boyacá), the Octava Papeleta for Health and Social Security as Fundamental Rights, as well as from innumerable individuals committed to a peaceful Colombia with social justice.

The feeling was unanimously expressed, that this is the time to gather forces to give support to these negotiations, which have powerful enemies who have no need to conceal themselves. In this spirit we applaud such initiatives as the Peace Congress at the weekend in Bogotá, and planned events such as the Ecumenical Forum for Peace in Bogotá, and the Peace Forum in Brazil. The enormous mobilisation for peace, democracy and the defense of the public, convened by a great number of social organisations and personalities, including the Santos government and the FARC insurgency, is an event of great significance; more than a million people demonstrated to impress on the warring parties their desire for dialogue.

It is also time to decisively help the struggle which the popular movements and peasants&#039; organisations are waging in Colombia, with a special emphasis on the political prisoners and the Colombians who are persecuted and stigmatised for their political commitment, for it is they who are the real builders of a Colombia which can end the war by overcoming its objective causes.

Our call is above all for unity, for honest work and commitment to solidarity with the popular movement and the peace talks in Colombia, to overcome all pettiness and collaborate generously with this aim and purpose which brings together all our desires for one single objective, peace with social justice.]]></description>

			<title>Letter from Mike almost four years after the accidental death of Zoé (France)</title>
			<link>http://www.antifa.ca/antifa-news/letter-from-mike-almost-four-years-after-the-accidental-death-of-zoe-france</link>
			<description><![CDATA[from liberaciontotal, transl waronsociety:
Note from LT: Our path as a propaganda project is still marked by the moment when we found the information in French that a compañera had died and a compañero had been wounded, this accident happened when the two armed an explosive device during the early hours of May 1st, 2009. But we found this information and translated it more than a month after this painful accident happened, and also the information was always equally scarce. We have never managed to understand why there was such silence, if there was even a review published in France titled “Peste Noire” (Black Plague) in honor of the compañero Mauri, in which texts were translated from Spanish to French and the editors did a lot of work to copy communiques and reflections. We often asked why they couldn’t find similar texts to the ones we could find for Mauri after his accidental death, except with Zoe’s name, but the responses were always that this was how her close compañerxs wanted it. Which we never shared. 
It turns the stomach now to read the words from the compañero Mike; when this email came to us and we read the name we soon knew who it was about, we could never forget his name just as we will never forget Zoe’s. Unlike the compas from Ediciones Entropía (who sent the translation of this letter, which we likewise corrected from the original French text), we do not believe that the revolutionary space has buried Mike and Zoe’s story in forgetting, there were even attempts like ours to facilitate information in Spanish and on the other hand anonymous persons vindicated her memory on numerous occasions. We believe that the fraternal critique should be focused on those who could have spread her trajectory, her thoughts and practices, with the intention that she not be forgotten for her contributions to the struggle. As well as to have expressed solidarity internationally with Mike for his legal situation and now his incarceration.
Honor forever for the warrior Zoé!
May historical memory bury those who condemn
going on the offensive against domination!
International solidarity with the compañero Mike!
Note from Entropía: The following text is part of a compilation already in the works that will be titled “Bound by the Flash.” More than morbidity, what moves us to share stories and experiences of compañerxs who have died or been wounded during planning, preparing or executing clandestine attacks. We all know that Mauri died (physically speaking) on his way to the Prison Guards School, or that Tortuga was headed to a bank… but who remembers Camille Decoux? Has anyone been interested in breaking the linguistic barrier and researching the development of the situation of the compañero Michaël Dupanloup, wounded in France and forgotten in the rest of the world? (Does anyone even know who Michaël Dupanloup is?)
Now then, the reason for publishing the following account ahead of time has to do, more than anything else, with the almost nonexistent information circulated on the internet about Zoé’s case. It is so we do not forget her life, compañerxs, so that her niche is not kept being covered up. It is not not forget… and also to remember.
_______________________
XI Detonation
Around midnight of April 30th to May 1st, 2009, a homemade bomb exploded, made of sodium chlorate and sugar compressed in a small fire extinguisher, in a factory abandoned since May 2003, located between Hyères and RD 1006 in the Cognin neighborhood of Chambéry, France.
After the explosion, a couple of neighbors headed to the factory, who were alerted by the shockwave shaking their house, thinking that there had been a gas explosion.
They went through the place for 20 minutes, lantern in hand, until they started to hear a man’s screams. Finding him, they looked on a Dantesque scene: a man sitting on the floor, with his face bloodied and his arms partially torn off, he had managed, with superhuman strength, to leave the factory and ask for help. His name was Michaël Dupanloup, 25 years old and from Geneva, Switzerland. In spite of his physical state, he managed to get a few words across. “We made a mistake… my girlfriend is inside.” But his girlfriend Zoé Aveilla, from Ardèche, France, 23 years old, had died.
Michaël, who was severely burned, was left with partial loss of vision and seriously damaged hands; he was immediately transferred by helicopter to the Lyon hospital, where he spent several days in a coma and with permanent police custody. He was accused in the hospital bed of “criminal association for the preparation of a terrorist group” and for “fabrication and possession of explosives.” Also there they took his first interrogation in which he said that he was always alone with Zoe.
Zoé and Michaël actively participated in libertarian groups, lived half a year in a squat in Cognin until its eviction and for a year frequented the Les Pilots squat (occupied since September 2008) which, after the explosion, was raided by 130 police officers, including anti-terrorist units, with the order of “finding every kind of evidence.” The 11 peope who were found in the place were interrogated. Three people were arrested: Raphaël Serres, 24, Joris Alibert, 23, and William Bonnet, 21, accused of “destruction of evidence” during the raid and charged with terrorist conduct.
Simultaneously, the police raided Zoé’s house in Biolay, bringing out plastic bags with gardening products.
In Chambery, a support group called for a solidarity demonstration which was attended by 200 people in solidarity.
During the allegations, the compañeros’ defense lawyer was emphatic in indicating the lack of a terrorist character, since the accident happened in an abandoned factory uninhabited for years, without even causing material losses; moreover, the accusation of Raphael, Joris and William was basically created on all of them having friendly relations with Zoé. In July 2010, the judge of the anti-terrorist division of Paris returned the case to the criminal court of Chambéry, snarling the case for almost two years, until on May 25, 2012 the trial resumed this time without the terrorist character. The charges against Michaël were “unauthorized fabrication of explosives,” while against the rest they only brought the charge of “destruction of documents.” The Prosecutor asked for 1 year of prison for Michaël, and for the rest only a half a year with the possibility of release on bail with the payment of 5,000 Euro.
On January 7th, 2013, Michaël began to serve the sentence dictated by the judges. Up to now, we did not know about Michaël’s ideas, but once in prison, like Tortuga, he wrote his first communique:
The heart in a cage, the rage in the heart….
Some news from the Chambéry jail
Since January 7th, I have been serving a 4 month sentence for manufacturing an explosive device in 2009 which resulted in an accidental explosion in which my companion Zoé died and I was seriously injured.
I don’t want you to pity my fate. I am not an innocent victim facing an imbalance of justice but an individual among others who has not wanted to enter into the sad reality that society reserves for him and who the state locks up in order to increase its control and try to maintain its authority.
I am not an revolutionary vanguard setting an example to follow or seeking to suffer in order to stir up some comrades’ revolt, I am no more than an individual who seeks collective liberation through a destruction of social structures and norms benefiting the state and capital. While having revolutionary desires, I refuse the separation between “social” and “political” prisoners and consider myself “political prisoner” as much as all other imprisoned people.
I am a human being with a thirst for freedom who tries to live and struggle by his anti-authoritarian ethics in a society built on oppression and domination and who logically suffers the consequences of his choice.
If my situation provokes anger, everyone is free to cultivate that anger and give it the form he or she wants.
That the rage is not wiped out by fear, that the revolts live!!!
Break the jail and this concrete world of shit, freedom for all!!!
mike
P.S.
During this few months of imprisonment, here is the address where I can be written:
Michaël Dupanloup . numéro d’écrou 23 007. M.A de Chambéry, 151 rue Belledonne, 73011 Chambéry. France

For those who never know what to write to prisoners, you can also participate in the great postcard contest without risk of ridicule.]]></description>

			<title>International Day of Action Against Police Brutality, Corruption &amp; Murder</title>
			<link>http://www.antifa.ca/antifa-news/international-day-of-action-against-police-brutality-corruption-murder</link>
			<description><![CDATA[This is a demo call out from a social activist group in Birmingham, UK.

Friday, 15 March 2013, 13:00. Wear Black
Police Headquarters Lloyd House.
March 15 has been a day of international action against police brutality around the globe since 1997. The specific date is significant because in Switzerland, on March 15, two children, ages 11 and 12, were beaten by police. M15 originated from the Black Flag group in Switzerland and from the Collective Opposed to Police Brutality in Montreal. People in countries across the world come out to the streets in March to express their rage against the police. In Montreal specifically, there has been fierce annual riots erupting from the depths of the dispossessed. This March 15, We encourage everyone to join the rest of the world in the streets the timing couldn’t be more appropriate. On this date 2 years ago the Police killed a British Reggae Icon David Emanuel aka Smiley Culture proved in court to be an innocent man and weeks later Birmingham man Kingsley Burrell dialled 999 for help and ended up dead 30th March 2011. Not forgetting unarmed man 36, Anthony Grainger shot and killed in a pre planned operation in Manchester on 3rd March 2012. 
THE WEST MIDLANDS POLICE ALSO PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN THE COVER UP ENQUIRY INTO THE HILLSBOROUGH 96
We demand justice for the Hillsbrough 96
They include that officers pressured other witnesses to withdraw criticisms of South Yorkshire police;
They concentrated on and sympathised with South Yorkshire police’s discredited account that supporters were drunk and misbehaving;
They failed to conduct an investigation rigorous enough to result in criminal or disciplinary proceedings against anyone.
They played a central role in the failings of the Hillsborough inquests which have now been quashed.
*********************
We are looking for all trade unions, all campaigns 4 justice and all students across the uk to join us in this international day of action.
Speakers to be announced from across the UK including representatives for families in USA &amp; EUROPE.

The United Families &amp; Friends Campaign (UFFC) calls for an independent judicial inquiry into all suspicious deaths in custody. UFFC is a coalition of families and friends of those that have died in the custody of police and prison officers as well as those who died in psychiatric and immigration detention. It also has members and supporters from campaign groups and advocacy organisations from across the uk including BirminghamStrong Justice 4 All. The Independent Advisory Panel on Deaths in Custody report published in 2011 states: in total, there were 5,998 deaths recorded for the 11 years from 2000 to 2010. This is an average of 545 deaths per year. Despite the fact there have been 11 unlawful killing verdicts since 1990 there has never been a successful prosecution

WHAT IS DEATHS IN CUSTODY?
Deaths in police custody include situations where the deceased was ‘arrested or detained in charge of a constable or otherwise in the hands of the police’ as defined by the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984.Aside from people actually arrested or detained, fatalities in the following situations are also classed as ‘custody deaths’:
People actively seeking to evade arrest
People involved in police ‘stop and search’ operations
Sieges/ambushes
People detained under the Mental Health Act
(IAP) Independent Advisory Panel publish statistical analysis of all recorded deaths: 2000-2010
The IAP has today published their statistical analysis of all recorded deaths in state custody between 1 January 2000 and 31 December 2010. This represents an important piece of work for the Panel as this is the first time that all recorded deaths in state custody will be broken down by ethnicity, gender, age and cause of death, and presented together in a single format.
The statistical analysis covers deaths in:
Prisons
Young Offender Institutes (YOIs)
Police custody
Immigration Removal Centres
Approved Premises
Secure Children’s Homes
Secure Training Centres
Whilst not specifically a custodial sector, the report also contains data on the deaths of patients who died in hospital whilst detained under the Mental Health Act.
The report found that:
In total, there were 5,998 deaths recorded for the 11 years from 2000 to 2010. This is an average of 545 deaths per year. Of these deaths, 72% (N=4,291) were of males and 28% (N=1,676) were of females.
A total of 607 deaths were reported in 2000 compared to 512 in 2010 (this represents a 16% reduction between the beginning and the end of the reporting period).
Deaths of those detained under the Mental Health Act (MHA) and those in prison custody, account for 92% (N=5,511) of all deaths in state custody, at 61% (N=3,628) and 31% (N=1,883) respectively.
66% (N=3,974) of deaths were recorded as natural causes. Of these, 71% (N=2,814) of deaths were of patients detained under the MHA.
9% (N=553) of the 5,998 deaths were of individuals from Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) groups, with 5% (N=305) classified as Black, 3% (N=184) as Asian, 1% (N=52) as Mixed Ethnicity and 0.2% (N=12) as Chinese. 87% (N=5,192) were classified as White. Ethnicity was either not known, or not stated in 3% (N=180) of cases, 1% (N=76) were classified as ‘Other’. These figures need further analysis to understand whether there is any disproportion between race and ethnic identity and types of death.
In 0.3% (N=19) of deaths, the application of restraint by custodial staff was attributed to the cause of death during the Coroner’s inquest.
